Entertaining, Must see, Delightful

See it if you want to be entertained. The acrobatic choreography was astounding! Andrea Martin literally stopped the show for a standing ovation.

Don't see it if you don't like the dated (but still wonderful) score.

Ambitious, Entertaining, Great staging, Must see, Relevant

See it if you like any of Schwartz's shows. This is one of his best...and this production reinvents the classic in a visually stunning way.

Don't see it if you can't get past a little off-color humor and an occasional bit of risque staging.

Clever, Entertaining, Great staging, Refreshing, Ambitious

See it if I doff my big hat to the idea of combining circus elements in this top-rate revival. Even during the few slow songs there's lots to take in.

Don't see it if You weren't a fan of the original or don't like the Stephen Schwartz catalog.
